Inventions by Kids Writing Prompt

Did you know a 15-year-old boy invented earmuffs back in 1858? Chester Greenwood needed to keep his ears warm during bitter Maine winters, and made 2 ear-shaped loops from wire, and asked his grandmother to sew fur on them. He later patented the design and made a fortune selling them to soldiers during World War I.

There’s also a 6-year-old from Singapore, Peh Yong, who invented a cooling umbrella to be used in the hot weather.

And Krysta Morlan, a 10th grader with cerebral palsy, invented a device to relieve irritation while wearing a cast called the Cast Cooler.

i would invent the ultimate house of the century,a house that could do anything- a house with a living mind. and to keep it running all you’d need to do would be to feed it cake. and it only costs 15,100 dollars which isn’t much for and awesome house.

I would invent a formula made of select chemicals to release into the air. This formula, called Atmosphorium, would restore the atmosphere destroyed by fossil fuels.
I would also invent an engine that could run on pulp from wood (the same material to make paper). This way our new “fuel” is renewable and would never run out.

I would invent the giving foodinator. It would supply food 24/7 to all of the kids who don’t have anything to eat and are starving. But it can also be used for people who just wished they had a certain food but can’t find it in the grocery stores. It would give you food from anywhere in the country at any time anywhere.
